Help Yahya and his community!
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Paola, I live in Germantown, Maryland and I am fundraising for Yahya Rida and his community in Gaza. A few weeks ago, I received a message on Instagram from Yahya. Honestly, I was surprised to see that a young man in Gaza had reached out to me. For a few days, I was a little skeptical and I was afraid it would be someone impersonating to be someone from Gaza asking for money, yet my instinct kept telling me it was real. After doing my own PI work, talking to him more and after video chatting with him briefly... I realized this indeed was a real person. I was overwhelmed at first, but now I just want to help Yahya receive the basic needs, him and his family and friends need. Right now, I send money to his cousin in Isra3l through paypal which he then is able to transfer to an account at one of the only banks open in Gaza in Deir ez-Zor. Yahya turned 19 years old last week; he was about to start University, where he was going to study law when the genocide began. His life is now ruined, as he has to worry about surviving. Right now, he is worried about getting money to buy tents and water, as the days are getting hotter and some tents have been destroyed by Isra3li airstrikes exposing people to dangerous rising temperatures. This is a dire situation, and I refuse to give up on him and the people of Gaza. Please help Yahya with whatever you can! Anything counts! Don't just talk the talk, but walk it, donate, help someone directly!
